What the homes in 75232 mean for plumbing
1960s and 1970s slab homes here commonly have copper supply lines, cast-iron drains and water heaters in the garage. At 50-plus years, those systems are prone to slab leaks, cracked cast-iron under the floor and pinhole leaks in copper. Mature trees on established lots add root problems in sewer laterals.
Because so many owners have lived here a long time, many homes have had one or two plumbing problems repaired at a time, so the condition of the rest of the system is worth checking.
